I picked this up in the Xmas sales as Id been looking at it ever since it came out. The graphics look great but its really heard, the controls are to hard, I waggle the stick back and forth like a mad man and I still come last! It would've been better with difficulty levels. I did manage to come 3rd in a race but my hands hurt so bad after you just dont want to play again. They need to re-think the controls again, make them easier, that would've made it a fun game.
PAL: Will play on UK and European Playstation3 only | |
